    Drop Down Address List

    I like to have a drop down list with the name of my vendors, when there names are selected from the list there address are filled in below them.

    Name
    Street
    City, State, Zip
    Phone
    Fax


    I have limited knowledge of Excel so please be easy on me. I figure some kind of index/match, or vlookup, but i can not find a good way of doing it. All of the address will be on a different worksheet, but same workbook.

    Providing the data is correctly laid out you simply use VLOOKUP & Data Validation

    Re: Drop Down Address List

    Ok got everything to work, except, how do I get the cells to stay to there defaults if I input thing manually. Right now when I input in the first cell the other cells read #N\A. Should there be another formula or did I input wrong.

    VLOOKUP Formula:
    =VLOOKUP(A10,Contacts!A1:E25,2,FALSE)
